CASTEL SANT ANGELO: Italy in one region

WE DROVE TO THE far western reaches of the Le Marche region to find a restaurant.

It took forever to get there but it was worth it.

They say that Le Marche is Italy in one region and there appears to be some truth to that.

We began our day in Camerano, near the beaches of the Conero Riviera, and wound up in the glorious mountains of Central Italy. In between, we passed vineyards, ancient villages, farms of all sorts and modern, industrial centers.

When we finally arrived in Castel Sant Angelo, the sun was setting over the region, casting an orange glow over the world. It was beautiful.

This image was taken in front of Il Giardino degli Ulivi, the restaurant we drove hours to find.

The eatery was a real treat and it deserves its own entry. So keep your eyes open ... it will come in a few days.
